Vacationing with a girl. The tour was booked during the quarantine period and we were a little worried about this. However, they were optimistic and, fortunately, it was justified. In fact, our check-in was the first in this hotel after a pause associated with the pandemic.
I will say right away: it is very important to understand the market price of this hotel and the prices in Marmaris / Ichmiler in general. Based on this, I strongly recommend not to overestimate your expectations. The hotel is budget. The rooms are small but comfortable enough. All basic amenities are there. They clean it once a day without much enthusiasm, but it will do. We took a room with a sea view. Since the hotel was virtually empty, this was no problem.
Perhaps it makes sense to mention nutrition at the very beginning. Tourists who want to see a classic buffet with a wide variety of food/drinks can read no further. Nothing to do in this hotel. The food is as primitive as possible - a couple of side dishes, chicken, soup, vegetables. There was never a fish. From sweet only baklava and one kind of cakes. It didn't change throughout the week. For fruits - watermelon, apples. Once there was a melon. For breakfast, it is still more difficult - boiled eggs and sliced u200bu200bin sausage. Also, cereal with milk. Of course, we didn't have to go hungry. However, I wanted more variety. For drinks, too, everything is trite - cola, sprite, tea, coffee. Alcohol is local. Cocktails at the bar are only paid. Bottom line: food as in an average 3 * hotel. No more. Again, it is important to remember the second paragraph and my thesis about expectations.
By the way, the hotel is declared as 4 *, but many tour operators indicate it as 5 *. Do not see it - up to 5 * there is very far away.
Upon arrival, the hotel refused to issue beach towels with a footnote to the pandemic. I had to argue and the towels were given out. One per person per stay. Therefore, I recommend immediately taking your beach towels. It's easier.
Further, I will mainly talk about the benefits. Firstly, the ideal location - around the mountain, clean air... To the Aegean Sea metro 100-150 walk. The beach is simple. There are always free trestle beds. Umbrellas are a little small, but will do. Yes, locals also rest on it. However, this does not interfere with a comfortable stay. Such practice in any hotel in Marmaris/Ichmiler. There are also no bars on the beach in more than one hotel.
The sea is clean, but not the warmest. The temperature is somewhere around 22-24 ℃ . Therefore, do not expect that it will be like in Egypt - 27-28 ℃ . The bottom is sandy, there are almost no fish.
I really liked the waterfront. Much better than in Marmaris itself. Less people. More comfortable and calm. The nature around is certainly not worse.
Minibuses run regularly to Marmaris itself for 4 liras / person. From the hotel to the bus stop - 200 meters walk. Drive 10-15 minutes. The last bus leaves at 2300.
By the Internet. Wi-fi is available at the hotel. Free. It does not work quite stable, but it is quite worthy. To communicate with the family, exchange photos and text messengers - enough. If you need to work at a distance, it is already more difficult. There is no point in buying a local card. In case of urgent need, Life and Vodafone give good roaming rates.
The staff is quite accommodating and friendly. However, the Russian-speaking administrator in this regard stands out from a negative point of view. She's not exactly talkative. Under the terms of the promotion with the tour operator Compas, we had an early check-in and a late check-out. Unfortunately, the hotel did not hear about this promotion. This is very strange, since the information came from the official Compas website. The situation was resolved only with the help of our tour agent. Bottom line: if you are sure of something, prove to the administration that you are right. On their own, they help without much desire.
Excursions. Many wrote that they need to be ordered through local ones. Of course, this is correct. Prices are at least 2 times cheaper. The quality of excursions is not lost. Therefore, do not listen to tour operators, but confidently contact the locals.
Final result. It is important to understand that the money paid for the tour is money for a great place with cool nature and the sea on the first line. This opens up the possibility of cool excursions (for example, we liked the Aegean Islands the most). With this goal, you will definitely be able to have a good rest. At least we were very pleased! If the main purpose of the holiday is to have a tasty meal and sleep on the trestle bed, it is more logical to go to the conditional Side. There, for the money you can rent a hotel under these criteria.
